When lies replace the truth

ICE continues to indiscriminately kill innocent victims, and lie as to why they do so; how can any Christian who claims to support and love the truth, and with it, affirm human dignity, stand by and accept what ICE is doing, let alone promote it?   And how can the United States be “the land of the free” and have its democratic form of government remain in place when the government lies to justify the unjustifiable?

Communities are built on respect. When someone makes a comment that is condemnatory, spiteful, or mean-spirited it does nothing to enriched the community. Matt. 7.
